Yea but couldn't you say the same for the internet in general and all of the different websites/social networking websites? Facebook and the internet has its each own individual purposes and that depends on what you make of it, but I think if somebody is spending majority of their time on Facebook or only communicating with people through some sort of social networking site THEN I think you could safely say 'it sucks the life out of people' or 'it prevents people from actually interacting' but then again personally I think that blame should go on the individual themselves.

Either way I cant stand Facebook and have no desire to communicate with people from 8th grade or some shit like that. I stick to tumblr and these korn forums.

I have one, I do certain things like most importantly keep in touch with my best friends and other people important in my life that is the ONLY real reason I have one, but it gets boring unless I am having a conversation with them, I don't get the whole 'addiction' with Facebook.

I remember when Facebook was strictly for college students. I found it weird knowing so much about my fellow classmates. Now it has become the social mecca for any and everyone. It has its good and bad points but, it keeps me in touch with people whom I simply forgot about. Quite a few people from grammar school have contacted me which is pretty cool.Does it make me bad??

How much time do you spend on here vs Facebook? lol Personally, I have learned a lot about people and how they really are. I think being social is a good thing also a learning experience :/ Plus you can "Stalk" Korn thru such networks. An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

There are many ways that we could make use of this popular social media, it really helps me to update my knowledge about technology, media, culture, sports. etc also plays a decent role to keep in touch with my friends.......

I deactivated my Facebook page 18 months ago; permanently deleted it in May. A very Zen moment, that it was. I don't regret it at all. I have no problem keeping in touch with my friends. I did so just fine before I got into social networking. Besides, many of my "friends" on Facebook were either:

A) Someone I'd met once at a party and made no effort to contact since, and vice versa;
B) Someone I know from [insert school or workplace] and am on friendly terms with, but probably wouldn't invite out for lunch or for a drink, and vice versa.

As time went on, my resentment of the social network grew. If Facefuck were more enjoyable (i.e., more than just a dumping ground for shitty memes and viral videos), then perhaps it wouldn't bother me so much that it has sucked most of the internet into its vortex. Not only do I have a glaring ethical problem with their random censorship and blatant disregard for user privacy, but their Edgerank system dictates what appears on your wall and deems many of your friends' posts unimportant, instead highlighting contentious political posts of the worst kind.
